From Thorpe Park to Chessington, thrill-seekers in the U.K. have been brushing off winter and heading outdoors to amusement parks since the official start to spring. While it’s all rides and games inside, outside the park can be quite different. See how the neighborhoods surrounding the U.K.’s most popular amusement parks rank on the Pinkerton Crime Index. A score of 1 indicates the crime risk is equal to that of the national average. An index score of 2.0x indicates that a state is twice as risky as the national average. An index score of 0.5x indicates an area is half as risky. Know the risk. Be prepared. And take a spin on a coaster for us.
